I grabbed the hem of my shirt, hesitating for a while before blurting out, “I lost the bet fair and square. I’ll admit it. I promise I won’t bother you anymore. From now on, you’re my boss. Whenever I see you in training camp, I’ll keep my distance.”
As soon as I said those, my face started burning.
I’d always thought Amanda was just a clueless country bumpkin without a wolf spirit. It turned out she’d just been hiding her strength. She crushed the physical prelims-way better than Samson ever did. I lost fair and square.
Amanda glanced at me and suddenly grinned. “Owning up to your loss makes you a real man. Gotta admit, I respect that.”
I pursed my lips, not wanting to say it, but I still muttered, “Boss.”
She waved it off. “Cool. Let’s just get along from now on. You do your thing, I’ll do mine.”
I nodded and jogged toward the training camp. Pulling out my phone, I saw Alan still spamming the group chat, asking how Amanda did.
Annoyed, I shoved it back into my pocket. If Camilla heard about that, she’d totally roast me.
During training last time, Camilla and I paired up for some wolf spirit drills. She told me I was too full of myself and would trip up someday.
Well, guess what-I did. No way I was telling her that. Just picturing her frowning and saying she’d seen it coming made my face heat up even more.
“You sure you’re not into Camilla?” Oscar, my wolf spirit, teased from inside.
“Shut up,” I snapped, though I couldn’t help picturing her training, sunlight hitting her hair while she focused on her moves.
I kicked at a rock, frustration bubbling up. Losing the bet sucked enough, but if Camilla thought I didn’t keep my word, that’d be even worse. I should really stop making dumb bets and keep my distance from Amanda.
Amanda’s POV:
After I nailed the physical preliminaries, everyone suddenly treated me like the camp’s rising star. Even the werewolf history teacher kept calling on me to answer questions.
One afternoon, the language teacher, Hallie Cooper, asked me to come to her office.
She flipped through my homework and smiled. “Amanda, did you learn the Werewolf Common Language back home in the countryside?”

I hesitated, then nodded. “Kind of.”

In truth, I grew up at a private camp under Glacier Pack, where classes were bilingual. Later, I even studied for a year in Silvermoon City as an exchange student. I’d been fluent in Werewolf Common Language since I was little.
